ViewSonic to unveil monster 27-inch 1440p 520Hz OLED gaming monitor at CES 2025
ViewSonic is reportedly preparing to unveil a monster new OLED gaming monitor at CES 2025 with the introduction of a new 27-inch 1440p OLED gaming monitor with a blistering 520Hz refresh rate.
The details on the new ViewSonic 27-inch 1440p 520Hz OLED gaming monitor are coming from German outlet ComputerBase, but outside of the size, panel, resolution and refresh rate, we don't know much else. We should expect some "Dual Mode" functionality like other gaming monitors have been rolling out with lately, probably to 4K but at a lower refresh rate (240/260Hz most likely).
ViewSonic should unveil a suite of new monitors at CES 2025, including a new ColorPro monitor that will be targeted at professionals with a higher-pixel 5K resolution and Thunderbolt 4 connectivity. This is aimed at professionals who are seeking higher color accuracy for their photo and video editing workloads.
ASUS covertly teases 'world's first' 27-inch 4K OLED gaming monitor
ASUS has either intentionally covertly teased an impressive upcoming gaming monitor or accidentally revealed what it plans to showcase at CES 2025 in January next year.
Gaming monitor names, while being very unattractive and difficult to remember, do typically reveal some information about the monitor. For example, the ROG Swift OLED PG32UDCM is ASUS's 4K 32-inch OLED gaming monitor. This is a good rule of thumb when shopping for monitors, as the number in the model name typically represents the size of the display. Why is that relevant? Well, reports indicate that ASUS teased the launch of new OLED gaming monitors with a post on Instagram that has since been removed.
The post poked some fun at the company's monitor naming choices and then showcased the following text: "What're we calling our newest monitor?" - "ROG Swift OLED PG27UCDM." Notably, the PG27UCDM doesn't currently exist, and if the naming is anything to go by, it will be a smaller version of the PG32UCDM, which means it will be a 4K OLED gaming monitor with a 240Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms response time. The difference between the two displays will be pixel density, as the PG27UCDM will have a 166 PPI, ushering in incredibly crisp and sharp visual fidelity.

MSI MPG 322URX gaming monitor: 4K 240Hz QD-OLED confirmed with DisplayPort 2.1a UHBR20 support
MSI has confirmed its upcoming MPG 322URX 4K 240Hz QD-OLED gaming monitor supports the DisplayPort 2.1a UHBR20 standard, offering full DP bandwidth.
The new 32-inch 4K 240Hz QD-OLED gaming monitor won't be a huge upgrade over the 2024 model, but the MPG 322URX will feature DisplayPort 2.1a with the full UHBRR20 mode, offering a huge 80Gbps of bandwidth. We've seen multiple DisplayPort 2.1 monitors, but they were either rUHBR10 or UHBR13.5.
MSI's new MPG 322URX QD-OLED gaming monitor also features higher Power Delivery through USB-C, with up to 98W of power (up from 90W). This means the monitor will be able to handle devices with more power being drawn over the USB-C connector, including smartphones, laptops, and more.
Samsung has a new OLED gaming monitor with a massive 500 Hz refresh rate
Samsung is reportedly prepping to launch the world's first 27-inch OLED display with a blisteringly fast 500 Hz refresh rate. The 1440p display and QD-OLED panel would surpass the current maximum refresh rate of 480 Hz, as seen in LG's UltraGear 27GX790A-B and ASUS's ROG Swift PG27AQDP.
Going from 480 Hz to 500 Hz might not seem like a massive jump, but it's an important and notable milestone nonetheless. Samsung's QD-OLED panels, which combine Quantum Dot and OLED technologies, deliver exceptional color accuracy and contrast compared to standard LCDs. A wide range of brands adopt the company's panels, so we could see several 500 Hz OLED displays hit the market in 2025.
According to the report, this new 500 Hz panel is in the final stages of development. The first gaming monitors to feature it are expected in the first half of the year, so we might see it in action at CES 2025.

GIGABYTE says that its new MO32U gaming monitor features VESA ClearMR 9000 certification in HDR mode, while in SDR mode this drops to a lower brightness of 250 nits.
LG launches UltraGear GX7 27-inch 1440p 480Hz WOLED monitor with DisplayPort 2.1 at $999
LG has just announced its new UltraGear OLED gaming monitor with a 1440p resolution and blistering 480Hz refresh rate, priced at $999.
The new LG UltraGear OLED GX7 (model 27GX790A) features a 27-inch WOLED panel with a native 2560 x 1440 resolution (1440p) and an ultra-fast 480Hz refresh rate, with a 0.03ms GTG response time, making it the fastest of any QHD OLED gaming monitors.
LG is using its in-house WOLED panel technology here, using a white OLED light source with color filters that produces accurate RGB colors and "impressive screen brightness". LG's new UltraGear OLED GX7 gaming monitor has both VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification and the highest VESA ClearMR tier.
AOC intros its new AGON PRO AG276FK esports gaming monitor: rocks 520Hz refresh rate
AOC has just unveiled its new AGON PRO AG276FK esports gaming monitor, with a 27-inch Fast IPS panel and native 1080p resolution, joined by an insane 520Hz refresh rate with a 0.5ms response time (which isn't bad considering this isn't an OLED panel).
The new AOC AGON PRO AG276FK esports gaming monitor features a 27-inch Fast IPS panel that is bigger than its siblings in the AG246FK and AG256FS, but it has a competitive edge: the delicious 520Hz refresh rate. AOC isn't just sprinkling in the 520Hz refresh rate, but also a 0.5ms GtG response time for lighting-quick gaming.
AOC is also cooking when it comes to reducing ghosting and motion blur, with the introduction of Motion Blur Reduction and MBR Sync technologies that enhance motion clarity, which is a key part for competitive gamers. AOC says that in games like Counter-Strike 2 and Valorant, the PRO AG276FK can deliver 1 frame every 1.92 milliseconds that makes tracking moving targets even easier. There's also the Low Input Lag Mode, which bypasses unnecessary image processing on the AGON PRO AG276FK esports gaming monitor.
